Description

The Aliens are perfect killing machines, the nightmares of the galaxy.

Our only hope for survival is the ultimate in military force. Are you ready to sign up with the Colonial Marines?

Few films have had as much direct influence on video games as the 1986 classic Aliens and at last a modern game will be able to do full justice to the men and women of the United States Colonial Marines.

A squad-based first person shooter set just after the events of Alien 3, you must pull on the virtual boots of another squad of marines as you investigate what happened to Ellen Ripley and the original team from the movies. You can switch between any squad member whenever you want, each with a different speciality or weapon.

High tech equipment like the motion tracker and sentry guns are now yours to use and deploy as you see fit, as you fight off wave after wave of xenomorph. With authentic graphics that recreate locations from the first three films and an innovative multiplayer this should be the definitive sci-fi squad based shooter - featuring the definitive space marines.
